Notes

In the late 1940’s Ramon Monroy, singlehandedly colorized this film/the entire reel of the movie Ibing Adarna, making this the first colored movie in the country. The color did not last the decades though. Ramon Monroy is well credited in the film's openings. Jill Paz recreates the colors of the theatrical final scene of the landmark movie, visual pageantry and all. The details are illustrative as much as dramatic, and the vast scene seems scented with the air of a fairy tale, not the smell of real life. Through her work, Jill Paz enacts a homecoming. Her work embraces the realms of both the intensely personal and the distant past. It should be noted that Paz has revisited and reinterpreted the body of works of the late 19th century Filipino painter Félix Resurrección Hidalgo (1855-1913), an enigmatic figure in Philippine art history and her great grand-uncle. Jill Paz’s works are detailed approximations crafted with photography, painting, computer programs and laser. She has even used laser-cutting technology to bore, etch and puncture delicate layers; she programmed the laser-cutter in such a way it can etch a digital image on cardboard. In such a way, she is able to show the transient and vulnerable nature of paintings as objects: to be open to the possibility that the past and its objects can change, disperse or fall apart into total collapse. Jill Paz was born in Manila, Philippines, in 1982, and immigrated to the United States with her family the following year. She studied painting at the Columbus College of Art and Design and attended a studio program at Parsons School of Design in New York before pursuing Art History at the University of British Columbia and then returning to her alma mater for a master’s degree.
